You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Swallowtail, a sweet and spirited orange tabby with a soft white belly and paws, and an adorable round face with a dash of white. This 3-4 month old girl was found as a stray in the woods, but she's quickly adjusting to life in her foster home. Though still a little nervous with new people, Swallowtail is getting braver each day, especially around her human foster. She's food motivated and can’t help but get excited when mealtime rolls around! While she’s still getting used to being picked up and held, Swallowtail loves to cuddle with her siblings and has plenty of playful kitten energy. With patience and love, she’s sure to blossom into a confident, affectionate companion.
I just joined my foster family and we are still getting acquainted with one another. Once they learn more about me, they will add more information here!
Swallowtail is from a stray surrender with 3 siblings. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.
